Call to Unity Series 2

In this new age of democracy, equal rights, and free
speech, Christians are quick to boldly speak against pastors and other
Christians. It is true that God holds the church accountable for an
immoral pastor and such a pastor should be brought before the church and
disciplined according to scripture. However, the important word to
consider is immoral. We must know and understand that a pastor is not
considered immoral simply because he/she is not running the church the way we
think it should be run or preaching the sermons we think he/she should preach.
What constitutes an immoral pastor is sinning against the word of God.
There is a big difference between an immoral pastor and a man of God. And
just as much as were are to deal with an immoral pastor, we are likewise
instructed that we are not to harm a man of God. Psalms 105:15 says “Touch not
mine anointed, and do my prophet no harm.” We must understand that when
we speak evil against a man of God, God considers us to have spoken evil
against Him. In the 12th Chapter of Numbers, we see the consequences
that God handed down to Miriam and Aaron for speaking evil against Moses.
We must understand that God gives messages to His servants to deliver to the
people. We may not necessarily see the importance of the messages, but as
long as they are inspired by God, biblically sound, and do not sin against the
word of God, we should not speak evil against them. No matter how much
you tithe, how long you have been a member of the church, how many positions
you hold... you do not have the right to rebuke the messages God gives his
leader to give to the people. When you make false accusations against God’s
anointed, be prepared to suffer the consequences of God’s wrath just like
Miriam and Aaron did.

Those who are bold enough to speak evil against the man of
God either do not know what the bible says about it or do not care. If
the former is true, here are some other biblical examples of God’s wrath when
one speaks evil against a man of God. Read the following scriptures: Numbers
16; 2 Kings.2:23-25; Matthew 23:29-39:
Acts 7:51-52; Matthew 23:35. If the latter is true and you simple to do
not care what the bible says on this subject matter, then may the Lord have
mercy upon your soul.

Even if your opinion is
right, you do not have authority to “call out” a man of God. Read Hebrews
13:7, 17, and 24. Finally, brethren you should not spread your bitterness and
unhappiness throughout the church with gossip and ridicule. This is a sin
that God hates Read Proverbs 6:19. We may not agree with everything the
pastors, leaders, and other Christians do in the church. But unless they
are sinning against God, we are not to speak against them lest we sin against
God. We are to love one another, keep each other lifted up in prayer and
encourage one another. For the bible tells us so……
